About Asphalt.
From the Philadelphia Call.

from the ihUddetph}d CdU
"The most of the asphalt comes from
Trinidad said dealer in the article Ia a
CoH reporter. Trinidad, you know, as the
the most southerly of the group OF the West
Indies, known as the Windward Islands,
and is next to jamaica. La Brac, the lake
from which the asphaltum is taken, has an
area of 100 acres. Charles kingslev'S more
recent and exact measurement reduces this
area TO 80 acres. This, however, contains
millions of tons of the Grade pitch, which,
in its refined state, is becoming so rapidly
popular on this continent from the imperisil-
able nature of the pavement constructed
from it. Asphaltum is also found in other
parts of the island. Though called lake
or lagoon, this depot of pitch is for the most
part solid mass, rent, however. by chaslns
varying from three to thirty feet in width,
with no great depth, 30 thai they are trav-
ersed without much difficulty Here aud
there, wherever there is any soil, are clumps
of trees. The liquid portion of the lake lies
on the side nearest the sea, and only occu-
pies few acres i'll extent and of unknown
depth The vast caldron of fluid pitch is in
state of slow ebullition and exhales a
strong sulphurous and bitummous odor."

out paying fare She would get aboard the
car and hand the drive S20bill to change.
OF course, he could not change it, and could
not ask the lady to get off, so she rode free
every trip. decided that she was deliber-
ately beating the company, and determined
to get even with her. One morning | gave
one of the drivers, on the line which passed
the lady's no ss $50 in nickels, and in
structed him t, change the lady's bill. She
fell into the trap, AMI about 10 o'clock
boarded the right car on her way down

and he promptly returned her 40O nicllels.
She put her fare in the box, but she was so
angry she left the car and did not ride
agaip for month. After that she always
had change when size boarded a car II

ladies, beat the company out OF their fare in
this way. They tender a $40 or $50 bill,
